Gina has a nice body when she's cutting weight for a fight, otherwise she's thick as fuck and has kankles. I'd still hit it though cuz she's cute.

Dana White: "I don't know what it is with Melvin -- I've been saying this since the second season of The Ultimate Fighter. Even yesterday at the weigh ins, joking around: I'm waiting for this kid to take things serious. I don't know. I don't know what to say."

Dana White: "I 100%, right here, right now, guarantee that if Chael Sonnen wins that fight [against Michael Bisping] Anderson Silva will fight Chael Sonnen this summer. And it will probably [take place in Brazil]."

- Diego Sanchez on Nick Diaz: "Man, everybody out there, straight up, I don't like to hear this crap about Nick Diaz. I'm hearing this stuff on Sherdog, 'Oh Diego Sanchez and Nick Diaz...gotta pick Nick Diaz, that was a long time ago and he's gotten so much better.' You know what man, we've all gotten better. Styles make fights! I'm still a guy that's gonna take down Nick Diaz, I'm still a guy that's gonna push the pace on Nick Diaz, I'm still the guy that's tough enough to take Nick Diaz's little pitter-patter punches. Styles make fights. Nick Diaz has this grappling that's on point and so do I. We get back in there again, I'm going to kick his ass again."http://www.mmamania.com/2012/1/23/272...f-we-ever-fight-again-id-kick-his-ass

- Fedor Emelianenko To Fight Bobby Lashley In 2012. (Lashley: "I'm going to throw everything at him that I can. Of course, my wrestling's there, I don't give a damn what he's doing. I'd put my wrestling up there with almost anyone right now. I think that my wrestling would trump some of the things that he has. I know he's a great fighter, but if I fought him then of course I'm going to try and wrestle him down... If it was Dave [Bautista], I'm standing and banging with him. I've been doing a lot of boxing.&quothttp://www.bloodyelbow.com/2012/1/23/...anenko-to-fight-bobby-lashley-in-2012

"fyi what he said isnt really&#65279; an insult, in croatia , everyone says, i fuck your mother

Also pumped for the Gustafsson vs Nog - April 14th... Huge huge huge fight for him, he wins and he has a title shot within his grasp imo :3
Also interested in seeing how Sweden's MMA scene is. But have to be cheering for the one Norsk on the card :x

- Strikeforce champ Melendez fights May 19th, but it's not against Josh Thomson.

- Titan Fighting Championships signs UFC vet Anthony Johnson for May 25th event. Opponent not named yet, but AJ is staying at Middleweight.

- Miesha Tate requests Ronda Rousey rematch, feels she was winning before 'mistake'. ("I, personally, would love the opportunity to have a rematch. I think at a high level, it takes one mistake. Anyone can make a mistake at any moment and someone's able to capitalize on that. I don't feel that Ronda proved anything other than what she's already (proved) -- that she has one thing that she's great at. Really phenomenal at. But everything else, I could beat her. Give me another shot. I think it was competitive. I think for the most part I was probably winning. And I think at a competitive high level, one day one person could beat the one person, and the other day the other person would beat the other person.&quot

- After Rampage kept bitching over the fans and UFC not understanding him, Dana White said "Rampage Jackson will fight Shogun Rua, then leave UFC." (1 fight left on Rampage contract.)

- Demian Maia announces move to UFC's welterweight division.

- Mike Brown vs. Daniel Pineda added to May's UFC 146 event.

- Jose Aldo: If Frankie Edgar won't come to me, I'll have to go to him. "Having Edgar, a former lightweight champion, would be amazing for the featherweight division, but if he doesn’t come down [to 145 pounds], in the future, I’m going to have to move to lightweight."
